Question

Jacob has a gift card valued at $50 for his favorite hobby shop. He buys a model plane that costs $42.95 and a display case for the plane that costs $22.46. How much does Jacob have to pay after using his gift card?

Answer 1

Answer:

$15.41

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add the expenses together, 42.95 + 22. 46 = 65.41

(Next, you can do this one of two ways. I'll do the way I think is easiest.)

Take the total expenses and subtract 50 from that number. (65.41 - 50 = 15.41)

Answer 2

Answer:

$15.41

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Jacob has a gift card valued at $50

- He buys a model plane for $42.95 and a display case for the plane for $22.46.

How much does Jacob have to pay after using his gift card?

The total cost of Jacob's purchases is the sum of the model plane and the display case:

$42.95 + $22.46 = $65.41

Now, to find out how much Jacob has to pay after using his gift card, we subtract the total cost of his purchases from the value of the gift card:

$50 - $65.41 = -$15.41

So, Jacob has to pay $15.41 after using his gift card.
